Non-intensive, Facile Repellent Nanofibrous Textile Coating

Utilizing atmospheric plasma, this work enhances coating adhesion on hydrophobic surfaces made from electrospun nanofibers, specifically for military Nylon 6,6/cotton fabric. The method promises efficiency, reducing processing time and resource consumption compared to traditional textile finishing. It maintains essential garment characteristics like moisture vapor transmission, crucial for heat dissipation, while providing protection against chemical and thermal hazards. This multilayered approach is significant for military, industrial, and medical textiles, showcasing multifunctional properties and environmental benefits.
